Not sure if this was already discussed and as a disclaimer I don't watch much TV, but being that a new legal show was introduced last week (The Deep End) I gave it a try. It truly sucked. I miss Boston Legal. In any case, did anyone catch that the new little first year girl character graduated 1st in her class from Case Western? That's quite a nod to CW, don't you think? The other characters are from Ivy's, I believe.

I haven't seen the show, but that does seem to be a huge nod towards CWR. They're undergrad prestige is huge, maybe some of that comes through with the law school as well; but also, the law schools has some of its own prestige.

I haven't even heard from Case yet. I have only been in "committee review" for a week now but it feels like it has been forever. Every week day from 9-5 (OK, 8-6) I am attached to my computer so I will be here the moment the e-mail arrives. I hope today is the day.

Just curious, how long did it take for you to go to "committee review"? Mine still indicates Eapp Receipt and I'm not sure if I should be worried yet.

Applied December 15. They received my December LSAT score the week of January 4th. I went complete on January 14 and went under committee review on January 20.

Hm...I guess I will give it another week or so. Submitted early January and Eapp Receipt states 1/3/10.

Did they call you about the phone interview yet? Or have you already done one? If not I'd strongly recommend calling them to schedule one. I'd been complete since November with no word, and a day after my interview received acceptance and scholarship.

Yeah they called me, but I am putting that shit off!!! Although if it gets me a decision the day after doing it, that might entice me enough to actually call them.

My interview went well IMHO and that's why I think I was accepted. During it though, she referenced someone who had applied to 27 schools and knew nothing about Case Western or why they wanted to attend. I assume that person was rejected. That's not to say you need to prepare some elaborate plan you have involving Case Western, but I think the interview is just a way to gauge whether the applicant would really consider attending if admitted.

This is what I found:

We offer a full-time program but are able to accommodate students who may require more flexibility in their class schedules.

they offer a PT program still.. you can transfer into FT in year 2.. however if your grades are in good standing after 1st semester they'll allow you to be FT 2nd semester.. so virtually you will only be short one criminal law class

I think that if they request a phone interview you are not going to get a decision until you do it.

I just filled out their application and they did not have a PT program option to check...I know I think you said you go there but are you sure they are still accepting students into the PT program? Thanks for your response.

i know last years class had a PT program.. i have not heard anything around the law school that they were cancelling it, i'd call admissions and see what the story is.. maybe this is case's way for making a ranking push that everyone is calling for
